I'm Evelyn Nussenbaum. It's not an existential question. But in case you're wondering where the lovely and talented Owen Thomas has gone, the answer is Hawaii. With his spouse. Leaving me to fill his extremely large (but stylish) shoes. So who am I? The short answer is that I am a refugee from the late, great Business 2.0 Magazine—ok the October issue is coming out, but it's the last one. This is a collector's item, people! But my stint at the New York Post is probably the most relevant to Valleywag. OK, I was a business reporter, but I sat next to Keith Kelly and across from the King of All Gossip Columnists Richard Johnson—something must have rubbed off. I'll report, you decide. And you don't need to see a picture of me—I look fabulous, especially sitting here in my pj's.

I've had it. Between you vicious commenters and my cold, ruthless overlord, I'm near my breaking point. So Mr. Valleywag and I are headed west for a week on an abruptly scheduled vacation. (What's west of San Francisco? I'll leave that to the geographers among you.) I'm leaving the site in the hands of my former Business 2.0 colleague Evelyn Nussenbaum, pictured here. What really gives me hopes that Evelyn will make it through the week is not her experience at the deuce, as valuable as that is. No, it's the fact that she spent three years at the New York Post, back to back with the Page Six crew. If she can work for Rupert Murdoch, she'll manage just fine. Tip your guest editor!
